Tips of the trade on how to wear eye makeup are endless. This is because there are so many looks you can create, colors you can choose from, and tools to achieve the looks you want. Here are two dramatically different ways to learn how to wear eye makeup. The first involves taking tips, tools and makeup from experts in the trade.

For instance, look at the Smashbox Beauty Book ($181 Value) Beauty Book“>Smashbox Beauty Book. The makeup experts at the Smashbox Photo Studio in Los Angeles created this educational beauty package. This kit will give you the makeup they use, and specific step-by-step guidance on how to wear eye makeup- not to mention face and lip makeup too!

The other route is to try a product and play around with it on your own. The Stila Smudge Pots Black are among my favorite eye makeups. This is a gel eyeliner and shadow combined into one product. I recommend you get something like the Clinique eyeliner brush for application. Then just play around with this one. The gel has a completely different feel than you’ll get from powders. But I personally like how it goes on, and the look it creates.

I’ve already given you a lot of advice on how to create specific looks with your eye shadow and eye liner. But the most important pointer I can give on how to wear eye makeup is to choose products that you enjoy using. After all, beauty starts by feeling great.
